Seville - fiestas and romerias

Fiestas Seville has some of the most important fiestas in
Andalusia. When the orange trees begin to blossom, Seville decks itself
out for its famous Semana Santa (Easter Week) and Feria de Abril (April
Fair). Semana Santa started in the 14th century and is the city's most
famous celebration. It spans the 7 days of Easter, with the staging of
daily processions.The other big celebration, the Feria de Abril,
was created in the mid-19th century as an agricultural and cattle fair.
During the celebration, the city's men flock to the event dressed in
short jackets, boots and chaps, and the women wear colourful dresses
with ruffles.The Romería (pilgrimage) del Rocío is also worthy of
note. The pilgrims come from all to the sanctuary of the Virgen del
Rocío in the village of Almonte, Huelva, to see the procession. The
procession is solemn, but the uniforms and dress of the different
Brotherhoods are colourful. Many of the streets along the path are covered with white awnings.
